Read on to see 5 ways Eva Longoria stays in shape and the photos that prove they work—and to get beach-ready yourself, don't miss these essential 30 Best-Ever Celebrity Bathing Suit Photos!
1. Health Is More Than Just a Number on the Scale
Eva isn’t concerned about being skinny. In fact, she once told Health that her unhealthiest moment was also her skinniest. “I try to have a healthy outlook. I'm your everlasting, hopeless optimist!” she said. "I don’t feel like we should go by these rules and social constructs of society where you have to be a certain size to be pretty," she added to the publication a few years later.
2. It All Boils Down to Diet and Exercise

"Especially as you get older, people want to know the secret to looking good and there is no secret. It's diet and exercise," she stated to Vogue Australia. "People say they eat well but they don't exercise. Or they run 20 miles a day but they can't lose weight. You have to do both."
3. Diversify Your Workouts
Eva doesn’t just weight train. "I do a lot. I'm a runner, I do yoga, I do pilates, I do SoulCycle and I'm just constantly mixing it up," she revealed to People about her go-to workouts. A new addition to the mix? She takes classes at the Ness with her JumpSport trampoline.
4. She Eats As Many Plant-Based Foods As Possible

Eva isn’t a vegetarian, but still fuels up on lots of produce. "After I run, I eat probably the same thing every morning, which is egg whites with spinach and turkey bacon," she told The Cut. "I could easily be a vegetarian because I love vegetables so much and I feel like L.A. is a place that can support healthy living," she added to InStyle. "I love cooking with vegetables and I have a secret for cooking with vegetables, [which] is that they don't need a lot. A lot of people cover them in cheese or cover them in a sauce, and vegetables really only need olive oil."
5. She Meditates

Eva makes sure to take time for yoga and meditation. “Well at least I know where my third eye is……” she captioned a recent photo of herself in a yoga post.
